EDMUNDSOX BATTING LEADER Pitcher Has Average of .500 on Strength of Two Gamei Only. JUDGMENTS 1x I'LKS to regulate the giving- of a ) liss on balls purjinsly to a goid V hatter, anil such Ilk Interference V with thu strategy of the game, aro not likely to bring forth and good. 'H very x(iper.t Ing to the home tii, nnd to the home fan an II, to nee som pet little hitter irpnrv slkd at a time nhon a tjlfo slsm to the outfield means victory, hut that Is part of the game. The vis iting pitcher hss a right to uee any hon nreble effort to win the game, and If he an Bticrred In getting four wide ones at a i ritlrnl miinicnt, with the ohject of bring ing up a poor bntter. It Is within his pro- ipre to do so. and he r-liould not he mo hHled The rule thnt requites the ratrher I" stand In a certain prescribed territory t.i rrc ive the hall Is a guaranty that the Kill will he pitched close enough to the plate to be hit. If the hattrr really wants tn tnke a try at It, and doesn't Insist that the hall conir along "In the groove." .1 tint hnw the name will be Improved by cir cumscribing the pitcher In this regard Is tiot apparent. Especially Is this so at a time when splthalllng Is losing Its vogtie h ml the batters seem to be gaining on the pitcher. If more hitting Is wanted, the in.ii novs might take a leaf from the hook nl the present Pueblo team. Ita members scorn such a thing as a base on balls, hut simply rut loose at everything sent along. And they connect often enough at that to make the average pitcher tired and to keep .ill the opposing fielders busy. Their posi tion In the race Is not due to lack of bat ting ability, hut rather to its misapplica tion, nnd to boncheud ball playing In other directions.

It Is practically conceded now that the American association will have a team on the North Htde In Chicago, and the only uncertainly Is as to the other changes that will be made. Some of the optimists cling to the view that St. Paul will be transferred to Chicago, and that this will end the transformation. But the dope la that the move will go much farther than that. The jealousies that exist in the National league are of a sort that seem to Invite Invasion, while . the Han Johnsnnltes are not any too well knit tncrettiet for the nurriose of rnnelllin the ultlandcrs who are framing up the deal. It Is going to be worth while to watch, at any rate. The younger crop of tennis players In "mih:i Is mnklng Its presence felt, and the eeme played give evidence that the local men ere going to keep the game alive. Totter, Kohn nnd Martin are players of men promise warrants the expectation thst In days not very far way an Omaha name wMI bo carved on a wid-west cup. Potter was well up In the tournament last year, and those who recall his match with niatherwlck will rememher that he made that veteran go to his best strokes In ordpr to win. His work this season has been consistent and he will be heard from In the hlK event next month. The tilants are going to miss Christy Matthewson a whole lot Just now. His broken finger Is about the first piece of luck the Cubs have encountered this sea son, for they will not have to face him on the Polo grounds, and this Increases their chance for winning the series very much. And the Olants will have to start the western trip without him, which also means the loss of needed games. In the meantime Pittsburg Is simply sailing along, refusing to lose and neglecting to show any sign of losing. The Cubs have ample time to nose them out yet. but must do It by beating them the rest of the season. The determination of the directors of the Kansas City Union Depot company to ac cept the city ordinances and go ahead with the new Union depot at a cost of rxi.OOO.OOG. may have had something to do with Cousin George Tebeau'a determina tion not to sell his holdings there. He con trols a large chunk of the land where the new depot will be planted. Ehbetts of Hrooklyn complains that umps give his team the worst of all decisions. This prows that Mr. Ebbetta Is merely human, like the rest of us. Pld you ever see a time when the home team didn't get the worst of It from the umps? Any old time the umpire satisfies the crowd he Is going bad. Jeff says he will post a forfeit and go Into training to meet Jack. But Jeff la ctlll rounding up the loose coin along the one-nl(;ht stands, and this may be the reason for his statement It's better than an even bet that Jeff and Jack wilt never face each other In a ring. It's a gentleman's game." all right. But the fuss that is made each evening when It comes to fixing the day's scores reminds Otis of the finish of a heat at a country ' hunt" trot. A close slant at the perform ers will put a different angle on the per fect score proposition. VVhatever may be said In the future B(nut Paul Hlnes' triple play unassisted, i o doubt will ever be cast on Neil Ball's Hunt. Too many people saw that won derful piece of work. It can only be done In one way and that was the way Kail lulled It off. Potato bugs were destroying a Tork I romty farmer's crops. Along came an overflow, and let some carp Into the po tato patch. The carp ate the bugs: now, If somebody will only destroy the carp the vork win be perfect BrotVy Joe has sent Nick Altrock along i Bf.;her Mike. And right after Nick 1 ml beaten the White 8ox. - ometlmear Ain't It awful Johnny's Kllngs various ultimatums from iaia City lead to the belief that the Kl)y pool game isn't paying as big as It .lid. H i rig got Lang's goat at last. let ua l i' Pa Rourke puts the darned thing tn ..id strong pen. ''' got to that point where nary leader In etihi-r league can pan up a game. Omaha again has the leading hitter In the Western league as far as percentages go for Kdmumlson now has a batting aver age of .rft0, making the fourth Omaha man In the .300 class. Fisher. Welch and King are still batting among the select few. Hollenheck has an average of .204 and BUI Schlpke comes next wish .286. ; Ol instead, the clever right-hander Den vertle, who beat Omaha Thursday, Is the leading pitcher in the league as far as averages go, and Lang, beaten by Omaha Friday, Is second. Lower, Panders and Keeley have about the same record. Spencer of Pueblo has stolen one more base than Ked Fisher, while Pendry leads In sacrifice hits by a margin of six.

This is how the record stands at the present writing: Six thousand owners are now operating the gfr "Thirty' and six buyers wait for every car delivered So far this season the American people have expend ed more than eight and one half millions of dol lars in buying one type of car the Cadillac "Thirty." They will buy all the cars we can build from now till next July working 3,400 men, night and day. In delivering this output of 6,000 cars our records show that for every hundred cars shipped there have been at least 600 buyers waiting. There are perhaps not more than 10,000 dealers handling all makes of cars in the country. Yet more than 6,500 have pleaded and urged to be allowed to regresent the Cadillac. Their ap plications are on file at our office. In spite of the fact that we have carried out our manufacturing and de livery promises of a year ago many Cadil lac dealers who over sold their allotments said to the buyers: We'll gladly give you your money back." "We don't want the mon ey we want the Cadillac reply. Unpleasant but tremendously significant. Here is a car achieving things that were never achieved before transforming the automobile sales period, for instance, from a short six months' season into a staple, stable, all-the-y ear around demand. You will remember that we said a year ago that the Cadillac "Thirty" would establish a new stand ard of automobile values a prediction that is being gloriously realized. For we repeat the American people will absorb every Cadillac "Thirty" we can build from now until next July. The Cadillac "Thirty" Is furnished either as Touring; Car, Deml-Tonneau or Roadster. The price of flji 4flfi F. O. B. Detroit and Includes each type is iJpXaUU three oil 'lamps and horn. Specifications briefly are: Four cylinders cant individually, copper water Jacketed. Thirty horse power. Three speed se lective type sliding gear transmiHaion. Direct shaft drive. 106 inch wheel base. Backed by the strongest automobile organ ization in the world. 'Thirty," was the How has this come about? Let us stop and study this trade evolution for a minute and see what it means. In nearly every city the Cadillac dealer has his cars sold before they get into his hands; and snapped up the hour they arrive. In other cities the dealers have had their cars sold several months ahead. In such cases customers grow impatient and say: "I can't wait till September" or October, Novem ber or December, as the case may be. "You can't?" says the dealer quietly. "You can't wait to get a $3,000 car for $1,400?" The customer always waits. And that's the answer to the question asked above : " How has this come about?"
